Overview
- Activision released a new Black Ops 7 trailer featuring Peter Stormare's The Replacer on a Mars-bound celebrity flight that riffs on Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin mission.
- The ad includes cameos from Jake Paul and Love Island's Huda Mustafa as part of its space-colony setup.
- In the trailer's gag, The Replacer takes the pilot seat, accidentally ejects Paul into space, and calls in Nikki Glaser and Terry Crews to take over Replacer duties.
- Coverage highlights divided reactions, with criticism of the franchise’s celebrity-driven marketing and some positive notes for Crews' appearance.
- Black Ops 7 is set for November 14 on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC, with Xbox Game Pass access at launch.
